Cristiano Ronaldo is being linked with a sensational return to Manchester United following disagreements with PIF over Al-Nassr plans.
According to Fichajes, Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly in talks with Manchester United over a sensational return to Old Trafford. The rumours emerged following the Portuguese star’s decision to go on strike for Al-Nassr following disagreements over how the Saudi club is being run, which could open speculation over an exit from the Middle East.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been in the news in a big way over the past few days following the striker’s decision to go on a strike at Al-Nassr. The Portuguese superstar missed a game against Al-Riyadh following his unhappiness at how the club is being run.
The core of the issue stemmed from Ronaldo feeling that PIF gave the other owned clubs preferential treatment compared to Al-Nassr. The lack of transfer activity ensured Al-Nassr did not strengthen the squad sufficiently for the challenges ahead, which has angered Ronaldo.
Wilie, there will be efforts in the background to resolve the issue together with Ronaldo; it might take a bit of time before a resolution can be reached. In the meantime, some rumours are emerging in the media about Ronaldo’s future, with the 40-year-old now linked with a sensational return to Manchester United.
Ronaldo to make a Manchester United return?
Ronaldo left Manchester United in acrimonious circumstances following a spat with then-manager Erik ten Hag. The report highlights that and insists the club still feels they can reconnect with the Portuguese forward. As per the story, Ronaldo is in talks with the Red Devils over a possible return if he ends up departing Al-Nassr.
The story also states that Ronaldo might prioritise the sporting aspect over the finances, as Manchester United are certainly not in a position to accept Ronaldo’s current financial package at Al-Nassr. The idea might seem a bit dramatic on paper, but there are considerable doubts about whether the 40-year-old will return to Old Trafford.
Manchester United are moving ahead with their project, and some believe the last time Ronaldo returned, it disrupted their plans. Financially, Ronaldo must take a drastic pay cut from his current earnings at Al-Nassr, and from a sporting perspective, it’s better that Manchester United stay away from this rumour.
